Could I please reserve "Beautiful Love" Thanks :)

Beautiful love

The call of love echoes through us all,
How may we ever be loveless?
Do you not love yourself?
Quench your thirst in the river of the heart.

May stars muse at this union,
You and I,
As man forever wonders,
At the glory of the stars.

Within a moment of nothingness,
May the beauty of love fall upon you,
Blanketing you in a warmth,
You never knew existed.

Beauty and love,
Partnered for eternity,
Beauty found in being,
Love it is the soul.

Reckless and without reason,
Love is unashamed,
Risking everything,
Promised nothing.

Passion is the fuel,
Love feeding on this,
An elixir of change,
Grows stronger through compassion.

Those who cannot see the beauty of love,
Have surely been cursed,
They may never know,
What it is to truly live.

Lips of an Angel please x

Xx Lips Of An Angel - Ottava Rima xX

Those lips of an angel get me every time
So luscious and soft and so heavenly
They start to move closer until they brush mine
Kissing me softly and so sensually
I start getting tingles up and down my spine
As you lay me down on the pillows gently
You smile and tell me you love me so much
Still driving me crazy with your teasing touch

Those lips of an angel are smiling so sweet
Lulling me into a state of sheer bliss
Whispering sweet words, my heart skips a beat
Feels like I'm falling in a love filled abyss
If this was a tape I'd keep it on repeat
I just want to stay locked in your angel kiss
This whole entire night just feels so surreal
These feelings I have, I just can't conceal

Those lips of an angel now start to explore
I bask in the pleasure your teasing provides
As our clothes fall into a heap on the floor
I love the feeling as our skin collides
Feeling a sensation I've not felt before
It's all because of this love you've supplied
I reach out and trace the smile on your face
I feel so lucky wrapped in your embrace

Those lips of an angel now kiss me with care
And then we begin and it just feels so right
You've shown me that there's no need to be scared
I look deep in your eyes and hold you so tight
Then my body feels like it's floating on air
And I've reached a place where my heart takes flight
We lay close together, bodies intertwined
Those lips of angel get me every time

Kiss from a rose
reserve

Kiss from a rose

A beauty which is growth,
Incased in the bread of soil,
A delicacy ode to sight,
Of which man were to spoil,

We coat each petal in demise,
Then paint it bloody red,
Add a thorn to the touch,
And from here this pain has spread,

A kiss from the rose,
White for their death,
Red for the Valentine,
And pink for her first breath,

Although the pity has been bought,
The heart was not to sell,
Is this all that life has brought?
In the circles of this hell,

Damn the man in tie and suit,
Banish those to fake,
Exile to the women bare,
As the Earth begins to quake,

How do the leaves fall?
Into their shades of red,
The soldiers evicted there to die,
With each shade that they have bled,

Goodnight to the stars,
As the morn stats to wake,
I send my prayers every night,
So my spirits never brake.

Here without you please!! =]

Ciao~

I'll take amazing grace. :]
Thanks.

Amazing Grace.

The fear within her eyes,
shallow as can be.
The blood upon her skin,
blotted for eternity.
The space engaged within,
that's how it will always be.

The bruises on his arms,
show something unknown.
The crackling in his voice,
is chilling to the bone.
The look glued upon his face,
proves that he's alone.

The pain within their lives,
is something we can't feel.
The hope that they have lost;
I wish it was not real.
The world upon their shoulders,
hides what needs to reveal.

'Amazing Grace,
How sweet the sound.'
These foster kids
are heaven bound..
Just after the trusted
beat them around.

Reserve Bad Day please

Dixie

Reserve it's not over please

Can I reserve far away

Ha im working on mine "its not over" sheesh its taking me a long time *listens to song for ispiration*

It's Not Over

Let's start over,
Because you're still in my heart.
I can't stand to lose you,
Please come back, I'm falling apart.

I need you, please,
Save what's left of my soul.
Put back together these broken pieces,
Make me once again feel whole.

Let's start over,
We can make this work.
Was this all my fault?
I'm sorry for being a jerk.

I need you, please,
Come back to me.
We will make it work,
I will make you see.

Sweetie let me tell you,
Let's make a bet.
You better learn,
It's not over yet.

Not Far Away

One more inch
One more step
One more mile
I keep telling myself
It will be worth the while
I crawl
I fumble
I rise and fall
I lose my balance and stumble
I reach out
I scream and shout
In agony pain
Struggling with all my might
Before the picture of you fade...
one more chance
One more hope
One more faith
One more day
I push myself up thoses heavenly steps
Before the picture of you fade
Almost there
Not far away
One more breath
One more regret
Before the picture of you fade
Almost there
Not far away
I fall at your doorstep
Something I won't regret
I pound on your door
Hoping you will be there
Just like always before
There you stood before my eyes
I have something to say to you
Before I die
"I love.......

-she died-
srry I just completely made this up. dont ask why it's kinda stupid but it was fun. ...

Im gonna try the unchained melody I guess and added the poem I made up to my list

Unchained Melody

Hear that sound
Feel that pound
It's your heartbeat
So deep and it repeats
It's the unchained melody
It the music from your soul
Its your compassionate love
that will always grow
I press my ear against your chest
Something I must request
To hear the unchained melody
The sound I won't regret
The sound of your heart beat
So deep it repeat
I close my eyes
Never will that unchained melody
die
Over and over
It repeat
It continue to grow
Right from your soul
So deep..
The unchained melody
beats...
Forever I won't forget
That unchained melody
Inside of you so deep
I hear
Your heart beat
The sound of the
unchained melody

.... It probably doesn't make sense.. but. I tried..

Bad Day

Wanting to scream "life's just not fair"
Having a bad day whilst fixing my hair
The kids are fighting over what to wear
Pressed for time not a moment to spare

Homework folders that require signature
Brass paperweight that's lost its luster
Underneath it bills and one single brochure
Thoughts in my mind that we are so poor

Yelling at the kids "Ya'll better behave"
While eating breakfast from a microwave
Stumble out the door I am already late
To an appointment I forgot I had made

Speeding to school to make up lost time
Digging for change, weaving over the line
From the backseat my child starts to whine
Correcting my wheel to beat the deadline

Finally, to school they both are now dropped
Little did I know that I was being clocked
Blue-lights, pull over, now I am stopped
Forgetting my license in the purse I had swapped

I took the paper he gave me and put it away
I mumbled "Just great, another bill I can't pay"
Needing to get to work without further delay
The officer waited for me to pull out of the way

Later at work I unfolded what I thought was a ticket
Instead was a note from the cop that was written
"Be thankful for each and every day you are given,
Never take for granted, your kids are still living"

Thinking as I put the paper back in my purse
We could have been hurt and in need of doctors
Now I will be thankful when a mishap occurs
Realizing that the day could have been worse

Good job so far, keep em coming!

This Night [Acrostic]

Twinkling stars up in the sky
High above the place I lie
It's time to sleep but the nights so clear
Splendid night I'd usually hold so dear

Not tonight though, I feel alone
It's crazy 'cause I'm not on my own
Glorious night, I should feel blessed
Having spent a fortnight treated like a guest
This night lonliness is disturbing my rest

{Sorry had a real bad case of writers block the last week or so and this is the best I could come up with *doh}
